Weren't people saying earlier that there were rumors that Michael C was a creep and kept talking about all the girls he had slept with? That seems like quite a stretch after meeting his boyfriend (and not to mention the fact that he always strikes me as sort of shy!).

I want Mondo to win but only because I like the other designers even less this year. Although I actually did like Gretchen's romper, which I was sort of shocked about.

I was actually so sad to see Michael go! He grew on me more than any other designer, ever. His family situation seems very sad. I hope he his able to be himself. I liked Gretchen's 3 showings the least out of them all. I reallyreally didn't like that one outfit with the handbag and necklace..it looked like bad '80s with no new twist. I loved Andy's story and childhood home. I enjoyed his pieces ok. I really think Mondo will win!

So, we're in Palm Springs and are trying to find Michael C's shop, but aren't succeeding. Any of you internet geniuses want to help us find it? We'll post pics!

Mondo, Mondo, Mondo!! I think, obviously, the judges have no clue that old time-y circuses were part of his inspiration. He better win. I already saw the spoiler collections from fashion week, his was definitely the best, by far.

Am I the only one not at all sympathetic to Gretchen's repeated "I'm so poor!"?

I feel like everything she says is calculated and I have no sympathy for her either! I still can't get over her winning week one - did anyone else think her dress was incredibly boring? And I hated that half back - it just looked unfinished. I thought the jumpsuit thing week 2 was ok but there were so many things I thought were better. And the 2 wins turned her into such a bisque! Sorry to rehash - I didn't get to vent this on the old thread!

I never thought it would happen, but I feel kind of bad for Michael C. and the situation with this family. Did anyone else notice the moment when he was talking to the judges and said, "And there's some great pieces in my collection," and then proceeded to stand with the most awkward smile ever?

michael c turned into a 6 year old boy !!! but i understand his situation and i feel badly for him. imagine how devastating it would be to go that far and not make it to fashion week. but really, who are we kidding? we knew all along he wasn't going to fashion week.

felt super weird watching him cry so much.

i liked gretchen's looks except taht ugly green leather one. i wouldn't wear any of hte stuff myself but i thought they looked good on the models. mondo, obviously, is going to win

I love Tim! Did you guys see the rant on his facebook? I mean, he was a teacher, so he has that kind of a perspective and seems to genuinely care about the designers as well as the integrity of the show (I think he's one of the biggest parts of what makes this show so great, rather than any other reality/competition show).

But they do show at fashion week, they show a decoy collection. Michael C had already received the same budget as the final 3 so he got to make a proper collection that he could show to a packed tent. I hope he had fun. Here's a video of his collection doing the final walk. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiyNlPAaSME

Every season on Project Runway there are decoy collections that show at Bryant Park so that results of the remaining shows will not be spoiled by revealing the final three.
